Users can employ unused hard disk capacity to mine Bitcoins without the need for expensive mining rigs and other specialized hardware. Traditional mining hardware is energy intensive, noisy, produces a lot of heat, and is becoming increasingly specialized, moving beyond the means of ordinary people. With BHD, mining is simple and accessible. POW-based mining is all about raw computing power and energy output, whereas BHD's POC-based mining is far more energy efficient and returns to Satoshi Nakamoto’s original ideal that mining would be decentralized and performed by ordinary people. POC (Proof of Capacity) scans are only performed once every few minutes. For the rest of the time the hard disk is on stand-by with negligible power usage, greatly reducing energy costs. Based on capacity proof, it will support super-large blocks in the future and will add functions such as zero-knowledge proof. Solid-state drives are expensive, POC has no requirement for fast data processing, only capacity, so POC naturally eliminates ASIC chips. Currently, the amount of energy expended globally in POW mining is greater than the total energy output of 159 countries. The development of digital currencies shouldn’t have to be built on the wasting of resources. With BHD, POW calculations can be completed with a minimum of computing and energy resources.
Plair aims to unify the gaming and streaming worlds onto one platform, propel the amateur eSports scene into the global spotlight, bringing opportunities to gamers of all skill, and give the GAMERS ownership and control of their own data. Additionally, they plan to launch a distributed cloud computing network in which users can rent, play, and stream video games using the combined power of the network's contributors. The PLA token is the blood of this entire ecosystem, itself built upon the ecosystem that is the VeChainThor blockchain, which gives Plair the scalability advantages it needs to succeed over competitors.
